Description of Our Community: Beidou Township, Changhua County was called “Baodou.” “First Fucheng, second Lugang, third Manka, and forth Baodou,” this proverb indicates Beidou’s glory in those days. Beidou is next to the old Chou-shui River. It was Taiwan’s important port and cargo distribution center in Qing dynasty. The townships around Beidou includes Tianwei, Xizhou, Tianzhong, and Pitou, so Beidou is an important pivot point of south Changhua. Beidou only have about thirty thousand residents, which is at the eighteenth place in the county. However, the population density isn’t lower than other townships and it is at the sixth place now.

Project Description: Because of Teacher Wu’s appeal in the book, we really stepped onto the streets in Beidou, having the field survey and recording the growth of street trees and the problems in person. We began with the trees closest to our lives, hoping to reflect the concept of “planting the proper trees at the proper places” in Techer Wu’s book. Also, we desired to spread this great concept by the cyberfair website creation, to make more people know it and practice in their lives.
